Something that really boggles my mind is

Why is being covered in tattoos now all of a sudden make you a pin up model?

To me, pin up is classic. Tattoos are not classic.

Marilyn Monroe was not covered in tattoos, nor were ANY other pin up models.

So why is today’s “pin up” covered?

Anyone who calls themselves ONE type of model is lame anyway. I’ve got tattoos, and you obviously did my pinup photos, but I would never claim to be a pin up model (I don’t really claim to be a model, regardless!). Pin up culture is such a beautiful thing, and it definitely was those clean, classic looking girls with that edge of being really alluring without being whores. Nowadays, THEY’RE ALL JUST A BUNCH OF WHORES.
